I’m sorry I say the same phrases over and over when I work I do the same thing to cis girls I swear I’m sorry I’m sorry
minus-squarenonedaylinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down1·2 months agoYeah, I’d say “you guys” plural is gender neutral. “Guy” singular is not gender neutral, but that’s not what you said. The alternative to “you guys” is y’all or you all.
